     <p>

PyFMI is a package for loading and interacting with Functional Mock-Up Units (FMUs) both for Model Exchange and Co-Simulation, which are compiled dynamic models compliant with the Functional Mock-Up Interface (FMI), see <a target="_parent" href="https://fmi-standard.org/">here</a> for more information.</p>
<p>
FMI is a standard that enables tool independent exchange of dynamic models on binary format. Several industrial simulation platforms supports export of FMUs, including, Dymola, JModelica.org, OpenModelica and SimulationX, see <a target="_parent" href="https://fmi-standard.org/tools">here</a> for a complete list. PyFMI offers a Python interface for interacting with FMUs and enables for example loading of FMU models, setting of model parameters and evaluation of model equations.
</p><p>
PyFMI is available as a stand-alone package or as part of the JModelica.org distribution. Using PyFMI together with the Python simulation package Assimulo adds industrial grade simulation capabilities of FMUs to Python.

The latest version is available for download <a target="_parent" href="http://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyFMI/">here</a>
